Description

The concepts of "World Class Manufacturing" & "Lean" are very critical to build successful organizations which are driven by high efficiency in operations & ability to sustain and grow in difficult business times. These concepts are particularly very useful in the present times, due to stiff competition in various business sectors & ever demanding needs of the customer. These concepts are universal in applicability and can be easily deployed in both manufacturing as well as various other types of operations.

In the first section on "World Class Manufacturing", we aim to give learners a good insight on the concepts of WCM, Historical perspective, philosophy of WCM & how the WCM tools can be applied in organizations. It is covered in 4 Lectures.

These Lectures are a bit longer than the typical Udemy length & run from about 10 minutes to about 25 minutes in duration. The Lectures will certainly impart you with a good grasp of these topics & the ability to deploy these tools in your organizations.

These Lectures run from about 13 minutes to 30 minutes in duration & cover multiple topics which are very essential to gain a thorough understanding as a "Lean practitioner".

There are various multiple choice Q&A at the end of every Lecture to test your grasp of the topics and understanding of the Lecture. There are also a few thought provoking questions to make you think during the various phases of Lecture.

All these Lectures have been prepared keeping in mind the simplicity of delivery to facilitate a good grasp of all topics covered in the course. With my diversified global experience of nearly 27+ years across various parts of the world and having worked with many different cultures, I always believe that a Trainer should step into the Learner's shoe, while executing the training. This always helps in ensuring high quality, strong retention and an enjoyable learning experience.

I welcome you to this course and also request your valuable feedback after completion of the course as this will greatly help to improve the quality of courses and aim for perfection.
